I am finding that at maximum lowness(?), the driver seat height in my 07 TL-s is way high for my liking... Any way to get this thing to sit lower? I realize thats a tall order but I'm completely in the dark on how these seats are put together.

The 2013 TL-SHAWD I recently had as a loaner allowed me to lower the driver seat to wear it felt like I was sitting on the floor of the cabin - haha. Seat swap?

One of my gripes.
I have a 6MT and the pedal position is weird...if I could adjust my seat lower, it would be perfect.

but, Ive learned to adapt and change the way i drive to accommodate the car

Sweet! Im not alone, we must figure out a way to slam the drivers seat!!! I guess I am technically still in my 'adapting phase' as Ive only had the car a couple months, but my sciatica has been BUMPIN for the last 2 weeks.

Pain is weakness leaving my body!

Same here and I have actually made a post on this exact thing a long time ago. I also asked if there was a way to modify the seat to it can lay flatter. I don't necessarily need it lower, but I would be more comfortable if the front lower seat portion could lay flatter.
I wonder if the 2009+ seat tracks can work in a 3G TL. I to am very comfortable in the 4G TL. Then again it's not horrible in the 3G, and probably not worth doing anything to fix. My wife had a loaner 2013 Accord sedan and I absolutely LoVED the seats in that car. They fit my body perfectly.

I got my seat to lower just fine. I will have to double check on which lever I manipulated to get it where I wanted it. I like my seat down low.

He isn't asking how to lower the seat with the button, he's trying to modify the maximum lowest level to go even lower

^^^ lol I was gonna say the same thing. Im pretty sure we all know how to use seat control knobs haha

I'm the opposite. I like being a little bit higher so that I can see out better. I realize this didn't add much to the discussion. Just sayin'.

I put front and back ALL THE WAY DOWN in my TL (as low as possible). I tried to use a recliner type setup (front 1 inch higher than the back) and noticed it hurt after about 1 hour of driving.

RE: Sciatica, I have found that personally I feel best with the seat flat (as described above), a lot of leg room (ability to stretch) and I use the lumbar to add a little pressure/support to my lower back.
I too am in the adapting phase (almost 2 months).

Just put the seat all the way down and all the way back. Then slump in your seat.

Problem solved.

I actually don't find it to inconvenient. I am sure it could be better but not enough to gripe.
I will however be driving a 4th gen TL next week.
